Evening all

Here is the update:
Good DFW things- Charge phone in work - done
- Work some overtime - done but not as much as expected
- B/L/D from stores (cake
/soup/chilli) - done. Also cooked extra rice for salad tomorrow. - Heating still off - done
- Housework when I get in - done. Will check flylady too
- Load Kenco reward points into account - oops. forgot
- Also realised I forgot to brag about my uber yellow sticker bargains yesterday. I got £15.48 worth of food for 76p :money::j
- OH not in for dinner so he will probably buy something - OH came back and ate, but this means he has driven to uni and back twice instead of once. Also he is having a meeting in the pub. Still cannot drink because he's driving.
- Forgot to do the Kenco rewards
